What Drivers Are Saying

2018 Audi Allroad is a great car. The only reason I gave it 4 stars for performance is that i think it could use a little more HP. Just a slight hint of a turbo-lag on acceleration from standing still. After turbo-lag is gone the car performs very well. Earns its stripes as a high-end sports wagon. Lush interior and great lines lkeep it above its competitors which it should for the sticker price. I am very happy with my purchase; I would do it again.

I absolutely LOVE this car. I spent a year looking at other cars, but when saw an Audi A4 Allroad on the road I knew my search was over. The A4 Allroad combines the practicality of a station wagon with the sporty driving dynamics one comes to expect from Audi. The interior and exterior design, quality, and materials are stunning. Be prepared for an over-abundance of admiring glances and tongue-wagging from other drivers!

Performance with better than 30mpg, best of both worlds. A very quiet ride with great performance and good looks to boot. Has all wheel drive so good for northern climes. Awesome Bang and Olufsen stereo, spend the bucks.

My circumstances made it possible to move from a high, large vehicle experience to a tighter handling and quicker car. This without sacrificing winter usefulness and enough cargo space to be useful. Fuel economy so far has been excellent; don't have enough experience to rate reliability yet, but older A5 convertible has been excellent after 50,000 miles.

Versus the competition:

Many automakers offer a slightly beefier “all-terrain wagon,” and the Allroad offers no real performance or value benefits over any of them.

Americans used to love wagons; they were the family vehicle of choice for decades before minivans and SUVs came along and put an end to their dominance. That's a shame, really, because unless you really need to sit up high, wagons are fantastic: They've got all the handling and performance characteristics of a good sedan along with the ability to carry a bunch of extra stuff.

Audi used to sell some of the best wagons in the U.S., but like so many other brands, it's gone almost exclusively to SUVs now — almost. There's still one Audi wagon left in the lineup here: the 2017 Audi A4 Allroad. Said the Audi engineers I imagine dreamed up the concept, "If Americans really love... Read More
